Hi all,

The further and further I delve into the document building system in CDE, the 
more of a trainwreck I see that it is.

I have been working on the autotools port, and one point of interest I am 
running into continuously is the issue of downsizing duplicate code. I have 
successfully done this with the replacement of nsgmls, however due to the in 
progress replacement of the sgml docs with xml docs, this patch was rejected. 
Matthew said he would do this, however due to real life obligations and the 
size of the task, I don't believe that this will be done soon. No matter, 
nsgmls was simple enough to make a makefile.am for.

However, what isn't simple is the make file for dtinfo/mmdb. To make it short, 
this entire directory is just simlinks to dtinfo/DtMmdb, this would take me a 
long time to write makefile.ams for due to the fact that as far as I can tell, 
automake doesn't have an easy way to implement macros, and thus I would have to 
write a plain Makefile direction for each of the symlinked files. I tried to 
implement a merge of dtinfo/mmdb and dtinfo/DtMmdb, but I have hit these two 
linker errors that I am stumped on (log file attached). Could anyone help me 
with this?

TLDR; Need help with optimization patch, can provide WIP patch if needed

Thank you for your time,
-Chase
